We picked up an 05 Dodge diesel c/c on Saturday. Man, I love driving that beast, what a change after TRYING to pull our fiver with a V6 Ranger. Pictures to come after we get the hitch in it and hooked up ready to go.

Very nice truck!
We've found that ours turns much sharper than our previous trucks '03 F-250 & '07 Dodge 3500. Enjoy it!

Wow! Sorry to get off topic, but how was that? I can't imagine using a mini-truck to pull a 5er. In fact, I didn't even think they could handle the weight?

If you like it now, wait till you put a nice programmer on it, you won't believe the difference. I have a 08 Dodge Diesel 3/4 HD 4x4 w\6.7L and I Love it!
